Helpless

Whatever I've become
What I've done to myself
Not a choice to be this way
These feelings overwhelm me

Against what I've become
How do I protect me from myself
I wouldn't know where to start
Is this not what I want anyway

Helpless, again
Defenseless, again

Can't control what I feel
Even if I could, would I change it
No choice but to feel this way
Feel powerless against it

Can't fight myself on this
There is nothing that is wrong
No one to blame for this
It was me all along

Helpless, with every decision I make
Powerless, on this road that I create
Overcome with you in my mind
Desperately running out of time
Helpless, with every decision I make
Powerless, on this road that I create
Overcome with you in my mind
Desperately running out of time

If you only knew
What I wouldn't do
Just to get through to you
Helpless, again
Defenseless, again

There is something empowering in this
A kind of self-righteousness
A resilience and a strength
To continue on heartedly

A fool who persists in his folly
Heart on shoulder and sleeve
Worn like a badge of courage
Carrying on forward blindly

Helpless, with every decision I make
Powerless, on this road that I create
Overcome with you in my mind
Desperately running out of time

Helpless, with every decision I make
Powerless, on this road that I create
Overcome with you in my mind
Desperately running out of time
If you only knew
What I wouldn't do
Just to get through to you

Give up, give in, this is my charge
Sacrifice some, sacrifice all, this is my call
Close my eyes, wash over me
Carried away, to what will be
Complete surrender, self incarceration
Total humiliation, silent resignation
Deep breaths, sleepless nights
Long stares, will always care
Holding on, memories to caress
Can't be gone, feeling helpless
